Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The idea of socialism has given normative grounding and orientation to the outrage over capitalism for more than 150 years, and yet today it seems to have lost much of its appeal. Despite growing discontent, many would hesitate to invoke socialism when it comes to envisioning life beyond capitalism. How can we explain the rapid decline of this once powerful idea And what must we do to renew it for the twenty-first century In this lucid, political-philosophical essay, Axel Honneth argues that the idea of socialism has lost its luster because its theoretical assumptions stem from the industrial era and are no longer convincing in our contemporary post-industrial societies. Only if we manage to replace these assumptions with a concept of history and society that corresponds to our current experiences will we be able to restore confidence in a project whose fundamental idea remains as relevant today as it was a century ago - the idea of an economy that realizes freedom in solidarity. The Idea of Socialism was awarded the Bruno Kreisky Prize for the Political Book of 2015.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'You cannot win without a workplace where women and men have equal opportunities, equal input, and equal power.'--Dominic Barton, Global Managing Partner, McKinsey & CompanyOn almost a daily basis, we read stories in the news about high-profile male leaders, CEOs, venture capitalists, and entrepreneurs harassing and acting inappropriately toward the women with whom they work. Following such revelations, these men generally lose their jobs, and their companies lose valuable female talent, customers/clients, and their reputations. And, although we regularly hear stories about the 'bro culture' that obstructs women's progress and creates hostile work environments for them, we haven't heard as much about the efforts of good men who want to change the in-office behavior of their teams and companies so that they and women they work with can realize their full potential and their businesses can thrive. This book teaches men and managers how to respond in these situations and how to lead by example.In WE: Men, Women, and the Decisive Formula for Winning at Work, Rania Anderson lends her guidance on this exact topic. Social mores have changed, and yet, well-intentioned managers simply don't always know what to do and what's appropriate and useful to actively recruit, retain, and advance more women into leadership. They want to be told how this can make a difference to them and how they can make a difference-- this book shows you how to improve your own results and win in business:\* A new playbook to recruit and retain high-caliber women\* Take actions to work effectively, elevate and lead with women in the workplace\* Discover how traditional social roles exert a powerful pull on people of both genders and what to do about it.\* End confusion of male leadersIn the #MeToo era when everyone else is focused on what's wrong and what not to do, WE: Men, Women, and the Decisive Formula for Winning at Work, is about what's going well and what you can do.Men who are front-line managers, middle managers, and senior managers have been sidelined and left out of efforts to achieve gender parity for too long.

The authors extend the banking 'stress test' concept to a company's Capital Agenda -- how executives manage capital, execute transactions and apply corporate finance tools to strategic and operational decisions. Having a static Capital Agenda, however appropriate for your current market position, is not enough in today's uncertain world. Long-term success comes from building resilience into each element and in the way those elements interact.The book uses a broader definition of business stress that includes traditional macroeconomic and geopolitical risks, as well as technological disruption, hostile takeovers and activist shareholders. Companies that make poor strategic decisions or underperform operationally will likely find themselves facing great stress. And that stress is symmetric; threats come from downside risks and from missed opportunities.The chapters address the how and why of essential issues such as:\* Formulating corporate strategy in a digital world\* Pre-empting activist shareholders\* Restoring distressed companies to operational and financial health\* Ensuring effective collaboration among strategy, finance and operations\* Getting the most out of your advisors\* Proactively managing intrinsic value\* Rigorously allocating capital across the enterprise\* Acquiring and divesting for optimum value\* Syncing financing decisions with business strategy and capital market conditions\* Incorporating tax planning throughout the Capital Agenda\* Liberating excess cash with leading working capital management practices\* Aligning strategic goals and metrics to reach your company's full potentialCompanies that develop strategy and set operational priorities with a balanced Capital Agenda are best positioned to control their own destiny.

Volatility: Practical Options Theory provides financial professionals, academics, students and others with an intuitive as well as technical understanding of both the basic and advanced ideas in options theory to a level that facilitates practical options trading. The approach taken in this book will prove particularly valuable to options traders and other practitioners tasked with making pricing and risk management decisions in an environment where time constraints mean that simplicity and intuition are of greater value than mathematical formalism.The most important areas of options theory, namely implied volatility, delta hedging, time value and the so-called options greeks are explored based on intuitive economic arguments alone before turning to formal models such as the seminal Black-Scholes-Merton model.
